The masters of the six doors who ascended to the city also had a burning mouth, although it was inevitable that the burning sensation on the mouth could also illuminate a piece of light, and especially attracted the attention of the Song soldiers on duty. But it was to attract firepower to others!

And regardless of whether there is a fire in their mouths or not, it is true that all the people are flying up with their hands and feet holding the hooks and ropes on the ground. Each of them knew in their hearts that the moment they held the rope in their hands, the length of the rope was tied to their lives.

In three or five minutes, more than 100 and 6 doors were all slammed into the pass, and the Song soldiers guarding the gate were all wiped out. Of course, at this time, the Song army under the gate was also alert, and rushed straight to the juncture like a surging tide. Layers of corpses of the Song army fell on the stone steps on both sides of the city gate tower, and it was not until a large number of Quanzhou soldiers climbed the hook rope to climb the Donglang Pass that the overall situation was finally settled.

For this reason, the Song army paid a lot of losses of 1,000 people, and the Quanzhou army also lost as many as 350 people from the six gates.

On the tenth day of the fifth month, Donglang Pass fell to the enemy for the second time. 10,000 soldiers guarding the pass lost more than 3,000 people, and the rest withdrew into Jinniu Pass through Dingshan, and the next day the Quanzhou army swept through Dingshan and Ningshan counties.

Qu Wuxuan's face was gloomy to death. He didn't know that when Donglang Pass fell again, it was the same day that Zhu Biao led the army to return to Yongxing in triumph. But he knew that this news must not be reported to Wang Cheng like this.

Of course, this is not to say that Qu Wufu has to conceal the military situation, but that he must take action to save the situation before the edict of King Song is furious and orders to severely punish himself before it arrives at the Golden Bull Pass. Otherwise, the gods can't save themselves, and it's best to wipe their necks cleanly. Even if it doesn't affect Yongxing's family, there is also shame left.

Zhu Biao led the troops to take back the pass with great difficulty, and it was simply lost to Fu Yiyang in his hands, this is not incompetent. It's not malfeasance, but what does it say?

"Soldiers, soldiers! Take back Ningshan, Dingshan, and Donglangguan! Qu Wufu gave a loud order. Fortunately, the guards of Donglang Pass were not pure idiots, and when they couldn't hold the pass, they also knew that they had burned all the equipment and military supplies before retreating. Otherwise, the Quanzhou Army had those siege equipment and military supplies stored in Donglang Pass, and Qu Wuxuan really didn't dare to say that he would 'take it back'.

Because among the siege equipment stored in Donglang Pass, there are not only siege vehicles, wells, ladder vehicles, lookout cars, buckets, and rushing cars. There are also a lot of thunderbolts, whether this thing is offensive or defensive, it is a big killer!

On May 12, 40,000 Song soldiers left Jinniu Pass. A thousand cavalry guarded Ningshan, and the army entered Dingshan County. The dusk soldiers are coming to the city.

Sixty thunderbolts are neatly displayed outside Dingshan City, and the towering rock-throwing tops proudly show off their power. And this is precisely why the distance from Jinniu Pass to Dingshan County is less than 50 miles, but it takes 40,000 Song troops a whole day to arrive.

There are also mountains of stone bullets lying quietly behind the Thunderbolt Matrix, but anyone can imagine what kind of power they will unleash to strike their enemies when they 'wake up'!

Sixty large and medium-sized thunderbolts were all deployed in the north of the county seat of Dingshan, and there was an oppressive slaughter in the early morning mist. The livestock in the army also seemed to feel this heavy atmosphere, and the horses and cattle either scraped their hooves restlessly, or made mooing and low noises from time to time.

The early morning of this day was the planned siege time, and the Song army rushed to the city of Dingshan at dusk yesterday. The siege equipment was properly prepared overnight, but there was no merciful statement of mercy.

"Start the siege." Qu Wuxuan said solemnly to the herald standing beside him, he has an army of 40,000, and it is said that there is only one battalion of the Quanzhou army in the city. After all, Fu Yiyang hasn't seen too many sergeants mobilized in the state these days. The strength is far from being restored to the original time. Although Qu Wuxuan also felt a little puzzled why the Quanzhou army guards in Dingshan County did not retreat early yesterday. But the siege has already been like an arrow on the string, and it has to be fired.

Forty-eight shirtless strong sweaters, two by two, beat the drums of war on the drum cart. The sound of drums penetrated through the morning mist, through the helmets, and penetrated into the ears of every Song soldier, so that their spirits could not help but be lifted.

Hold the knife and gun tightly in your hand. The sound of drums also drifted into Dingshan County, which had suffered several military disasters in recent years, and immediately caused a lot of commotion from the city to the city.

The drums of "...... release" have just stopped.

A shout of different personalities followed, followed by a cacophony of scrapings, and countless stone projectiles darling up merrily, scrambling towards the walls, and though the result was often to crush them, they were still like warriors who were not afraid of death.

Qu Wuwei smiled, his ears were filled with the whistling sound of the wooden tops as they cut through the air, the sound of the trees colliding with the wooden tops, and the dull crash of stone bullets against the city wall from not far away, but it was so beautiful.

The fog in Dingshan County became thicker and darker, and the outline of the city wall became more and more blurred. This is not an illusion, but the cause of this phenomenon is the dust raised by the impact of stone projectiles on the city walls.

I have encountered soldiers several times and repaired them several times. The former is true, and the latter is a petty fight. The city wall of Dingshan County is solid, and the sound of broken bricks and stones after each stone projectile hits the city wall will bring up a lot of dust, because the city walls of Dingshan are all old walls.

Can you imagine the scene caused by hundreds or thousands of stone shells constantly bombarding the city walls? A large amount of dust rippled in the air, and there was a man-made yellow fog over there.

"Boom, boom, ......boom" muffled sound constantly, a pillar of incense time, not far away Dingshan city wall under the bombardment of hundreds of thousands of stone bombs, the female wall, battlements like jumping to the snow mountain babbling one after another stone collapse.

But the bombardment of stone shells did not cause the battlements. The collapse of the female wall stopped. One by one, they flew mercilessly towards the yellow smoke.

The sound of war drums rose again, and the three thousand Song soldiers let out an earth-shattering cry in unison, which suppressed the sound of war drums straight. With this shout, 3,000 soldiers in heavy armor, holding swords, guns, and shields in hand, divided into three teams on the left, center, and right, pressed towards the city wall in an orderly manner, followed by 2,000 foot archers with quivers hanging from their waists. Suddenly, neat footsteps and the sound of iron armor were heard in the open space outside the city.

A smile flashed across Qu Wuyu's face. Although the loss of the 3,000 soldiers who took the lead will be very small, and one by one their lives will be lost immediately, this is not important in his eyes.

As the Song army continued to advance, the gunners in control of the thunderbolt were constantly adjusting the height of the heavy objects, and they used this to extend the projection area forward. This is also another benefit of the Thunderbolt, similar to the extension of artillery fire in the era of thermal weapons. If you can't kill people, you can also scare people to death, and it can even confuse the deployment and arrangement of the whole state army. Although the actual effect of such a blind shot is not very large, it can be easily judged from the constant sound of houses collapsing, wood pieces cracking, and screams coming from the dust and fog. Compared with the damage caused to the Quanzhou army, the stone bullet caused more damage to the residential houses in Dingshan City.

The spearmen, shields, and swordsmen in the front row were still pressing forward unhurriedly, they had almost stepped into the area of the dust and mist, and the heavy armored soldiers in the rear kept approaching the city wall with ladder carts, and unexpectedly did not encounter any resistance.

When the ladder car did not enter the dust and mist, Qu Wuxu raised his right hand to stop the continued bombardment of the thunderbolt car formation, he didn't want to walk in front of the Song army sergeant in the offensive state, not in the hands of the enemy but died under the stone bullets fired by his own people.

But just as the thunderbolt was quiet, there was a terrifying sound of horses crying and neighing behind Song Jun.

Qu Wuyu turned his head in astonishment, but saw that in the col behind him, there were countless black pressure of the Quanzhou light cavalry coming towards the rear of the army.

"It's the cavalry of the imperial court, and the reinforcements of the Jeonju army are coming......"

"It's the cavalry ......"

A panicked exclamation appeared in the military formation, buzzing, and the small voices of individuals converged into a loud exclamation. Some of the 40,000 Song troops were recruits, and some were incorporated princes' troops, and their fighting spirit was not strong, and when they saw the black oppressive light cavalry rushing towards them, they were immediately pale with fright and their hands and feet were paralyzed. If it weren't for the fact that they were still in the military formation, and there were veterans of the Song Army in the formation, I was afraid that these people would have to run for their lives at this time. But this can't be blamed on them, in the final analysis, they didn't have a heart for King Song at all, so naturally they can't be asked of them with elite standards.

Hit the trick!

Qu Wuyu and the general behind him glanced at each other, and both of them saw surprise in each other's eyes. In a flash of light, Qu Wuxuan suddenly understood why the Quanzhou army in Dingshan City wanted to fight this asymmetrical battle in Dingshan County. I also suddenly understood why the army drove to Dingshan County so smoothly yesterday, and the Quanzhou army did not even have a symbolic obstruction, it turned out that this was a trap carefully set by them.

"It turns out that the Jeonju Army has arrived a long time ago, and it is indeed a good plan." Looking at the light cavalry of the Quanzhou Army, which was only two miles away, Qu Wuxuan couldn't help but praise secretly. These must be Fu Yiyang's killer features, no wonder he will allow himself to be free outside Dingshan City.

"General, what should we do now?" The pro-general looked at the still unmoved Qu Wu, and couldn't help but say in a hurry. Today's shape shì can be regarded as extremely bad for the Song army, although the county seat of Dingshan is no longer 'worth mentioning', but everyone knows that with the arrival of the cavalry of the Quanzhou army, the situation is completely earth-shaking. The Song army completely exposed his back in front of the unknown number of light cavalry of the Quanzhou army.

"The rear army turned back, lined up-" All Qu Wuyu could make at the moment was such a helpless but correct decision.
